We divide 278356 by 70
We want to figure out the number of times 278356 can be divided by 70.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 70, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 70

On to step 2:
27 divided by 70 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 278 / 70

Step 3:
The number 70 fits into 278 3 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 210 from 278, we get 68.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 68 and continue: 683 / 70

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 683 by 70, we get 9 and a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 39.0
Deduct 630 from 683 and we're left with 53.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 535 / 70

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 535 by 70, we get 7 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 397.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 490 from 535.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 456 / 70

Advancing to step 6:
70 goes into 456 6 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3976.0
If we take 420 away from 456, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 360 by 70, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3976.5
Subtract 350 from 360 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
70 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3976.51
Deduct 70 from 100 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 9:
70 goes into 300 4 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3976.514
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 280 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 70 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3976.5142
Deduct 140 from 200 and we're left with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
70 goes into 600 8 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3976.51428
If we subtract 560 from 600, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 70 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3976.514285
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 350 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 500 by 70, we get 7 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3976.5142857
If we subtract 490 from 500, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 100 by 70, we get 1 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3976.51428571
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 70 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3976.51428571 and a remainder of 3e-08.
